The Cisco® 5x20H Broadband Processing Engine (BPE) for the Cisco uBR10012 Universal Broadband Router combines industry-leading port density, an advanced RF feature set, next-generation advanced time division multiple access (A-TDMA) capabilities, and DOCSIS® and European DOCSIS (Euro-DOCSIS) support-on a single line card (Figure 1). The Cisco 5x20H BPE is a performance-enhanced update of the Cisco 5x20U Broadband Processing Engine with incremental memory and processor capacity. The line card also supports an extended DOCSIS upstream frequency range of 5 to 55 MHz and downstream support of 70 to 860 MHz for DOCSIS operations in Japan.

The Cisco 5x20H BPE (Figure 1) addresses the expanding service and operational needs of cable operators. A set of advanced features and a scalable architecture make the Cisco 5x20H BPE an ideal choice for cable operators facing the challenge of delivering carrier-class IP-based data, voice, and video services to a growing number of subscribers. The Cisco 5x20H BPE works with the Cisco 1-Gbps Wideband Shared Port Adapter (SPA) for the Cisco uBR10012 and Cisco SPA Interface Processor for the 1-Gbps Wideband Shared Port Adapter.

Product Overview

The Cisco 5x20H BPE is a cable interface line card for the Cisco uBR10012 that performs cable modem termination system (CMTS) functions, such as:

Featuring a highly integrated and robust RF front end and an advanced processing engine for DOCSIS-based and Euro-DOCSIS-based networks, the Cisco 5x20H BPE enables high-performance, reliable, and secure bidirectional transmission of IP packets over the cable plant for data, voice, and video services. The card supports:

• DOCSIS with extensions for Japan: 6 MHz Annex B extension support with a downstream extended frequency range of 70 to 860 MHz and an upstream extended frequency range of 5 to 55 MHz.

Advanced RF Front End

The Cisco 5x20H BPE presents an advanced RF front-end design, combining a very high level of integration with enhanced RF robustness and performance. The innovative design, which uses leading PHY chips from multiple vendors, features five downstream modulators, five upconverters, and 20 upstream burst receivers on a single line card. It embeds advanced RF capabilities, such as direct sampling of the upstream channels and ingress noise cancelation and advanced equalization.

• One status LED (green/yellow): solid green indicates the processor has booted and passed its diagnostics; LED blinks green on a protect card, yellow when in one of the booting states

• Maintenance (yellow): indicates the line card can be removed

• One upstream-enabled LED on each upstream port (green): upstream path is configured and able to pass traffic

• One downstream-enabled LED on each downstream port (green): downstream path is configured and able to pass traffic through the upconverter at the radio frequencies
